DkIT students are set to receive their examination results after the deadlock between teaching staff and senior management was broken last week.
DkIT President, Michael Mulvey confirmed industrial action has now been lifted by the TUI, and added that the Institute will immediately commence the process for collating and approving examination results so that they can be issued to students.
He added: It is anticipated that results will be issued to students via the usual channels within the next fortnight. The Institute is firmly committed to supporting students at this time and all support services remain available to any students that may be facing any difficulties.
Parents and students will be the targets of a new publicity campaign aimed at keeping Covid out of schools as more than 300,000 pupils return for the first time since Christmas.
Two Offaly adult learning initiatives shortlisted for awards
Reporter: );
Two Offaly based adult learning initiatives have been shortlisted for an AONTAS STAR Award.
The STAR Awards (Showcasing Teamwork, Awarding Recognition) are an awards initiative organised by the national adult learning organisation, AONTAS, to recognise and celebrate the work undertaken by adult learning initiatives throughout Ireland.
The two groups are:
The MenPower programme: developed to respond to the high numbers of men dying by suicide and to address the lack of engagement by men in community-based services, especially those with a mental health focus.
The programme also supports men experiencing employment-related issues. The programme combines a unique mix of mental health, adult guidance, physical activity and provides men a social space to explore how to be and stay well, barriers to achieving their goals, and how to plan for their future. They are shortlisted in the Health and Wellbeing cat
